Connection Question

Earlier we saw a "plant
parade." Look around
as you stand here.
What is happening
to the aspen in this
part of the forest?

Right! The conifers
have created too much
shade for the aspen,
so the firs are taking
over this area.
This process is called
succession.

FOOTNOTE Question:
Watch for aspen along the trail that have been
carved on. How do you think this carving
affects the tree?
